Tom Recchion is currently featured in TAPS: Improvisations with Paul Burwell, a program on the hugely influential and recently deceased UK improviser and instrument builder. Along with the almost 80 other artists, Recchion is "very honored to be part of this show and would like LAFMS fans to know it's out there." Some of the featured artists include Steve Beresford, Borbetomagus: Don Dietrich, Donald Miller & Jim Sauter, Mike Cooper, Lol Coxhill, Peter Cusack, Max Eastley, Paul McCarthy, Hugh Metcalfe, Evan Parker, Brian Routh aka Harry Kipper, Elliott Sharp, David Toop, Toy Killers, Richard Wilson with William Raban & David Cunningham, and z’ev, among many others.

Paul Burwell was infamous for his exuberant fusions of fine-art installation, percussion and explosive performance. He was a staunch advocate of, and passionate participant in, all forms of experimental art. TAPS: Improvisations with Paul Burwell, embodies his prolific practice.

Over the course of three days TAPS will combine film, installation and performance, portraying layers of interpretation from more than 80 invited collaborators, in response to Burwell’s poem 'Adventures in the House of Memory'.
